The book included excerpts of Carrie’s old diaries, and she also discussed the affair multiple times during the promotional tour, but Harrison said nothing on the matter... and it seems it’s still something he has no intention of going into detail about.

In a new GQ interview, Harrison admitted it was “strange” when Carrie’s book was released, adding that he had advanced warning “to a degree”.

The co-stars’ affair took place in 1976, when they were filming the first movie in the original trilogy. Harrison was married to his first wife Mary Marquardt at the time, though their relationship ended in divorce in 1979.
